These self-regulation moves are only being made because governments are starting to "notice" bitcoin and treat it the way they treat other commodities and their exchanges. In the process, much of the "currency's" appeal is being shed. The more "legitimate" it becomes, the less attractive it is to the original rabid fanbase.

Being a jerk to Wheels, your just fucking awful (and failed!) attempt to hook into Dogen, and now this blizzardwolfesque "I don't eve care if you hate me I'm staying" fucking horseshit -- who is this guy? Who is this fucking guy, Thy?

Go, Thy. Just go.

Bitspend is a thing which tried to make it so that, by being an intermediary which would purchase things for you with USD in exchange for Bitcoin, was making it so that you could technically buy things with Bitcoin.

The banks that Bitspend were using for the purpose of being a transfer account, which included Chase, suspended operations with Bitspend and told them that they were under review. When the review (swiftly) concluded, all banks involved had decided that Bitspend was too high risk and they would be closing the accounts permanently and mailing them a check for the balance.

With all their accounts frozen jointly, Bitspend is unable to continue operating and has to effectively shut its doors as it tries to find another method by which it can operate. It complained about the banks' decisions based on the idea that they were ideal clients and were obviously making them money, and so the banks' decision was purely illogical.

But it was obvious from the bank complaints that the banks knew that most of the monetary input was from silk road dealers laundering their bitcoin back into USD, so none of them were interested in dealing with Bitspend anymore.

It's a pity you're not water off a ducks back wacky image macros all the time. You were a fucking jerk, own it, and fuck off for a while and deal with it._________________Once, at a local NOW meeting where I was the only male among about a dozen women, a feminism trivia contest was held.
